Brothers in Virtual Arms Webcomic » Updates & News

It’s been such a long time …

I quoted an old Boston tune. I has been a while. But, this comic is reborn. Reasons aplenty for the long break. However, the next game matters, not the one you just won or lost.

So, a few in the can already and more to come. I mention in the ‘About’ page that my intent is to produce every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, with Friday being the Angry John Rant.

That said, I’m disconnected from “the life” having a job overseas. So, I keep up with things best I can by following We btrends and trying to keep up with conversations at places like the Web Comics List and others. Do you do that?

Finally, I did a sketch today of one of my favorite Web comics, Eben07. It’s below.

Upgrades, new comic and more

Like many other webcomic creators, I upgraded both WordPress and ComicPress recently. Doing so wiped out the BVA theme. So, I’ll be rebuilding it over the course of the next few days.

A new comic will appear Friday, Sept. 4, another rant from Angry John. I’ll work out a schedule after that and am thinking of the permanent way forward for BVA. Not sure what it is yet. But it will still be around. Regularly.

If you’re still hanging in there, thanks.

The BVA gang returns!

BVA is coming back. Finally.

We’ve settled into our new home in Europe. I’ve got all the technology necessary to produce good pages. And I’ve got a plot line to finish. So, with that, it’s time to start cranking out some pages. You’ll see a return of “The Cablinasian Candidate” story line. You’ll also see the usual one offs. However, I’m going to switch to traditional comic book formatting (vertical pages).

I look forward to your comments and readership, and hope we build something fun and worthy of your returning eyeballs!

BVA goes inactive as of July 1

BVA will be taking a back seat to some other projects for the foreseeable future. This Web site will come down July 1. No return date to speak of, although it’s still an important effort for me. I’ll come back to this when I’ve got some of the other writing projects completed.

Thanks!

BVA in holding pattern

Due to an overseas move as a result of a job change, BVA is going to be put on hold for a time.Â All of my computer gear will be packed about two months later than my actual arrival.Â So, I’ll be without the means to actually create a the comic.Â However, I will be pencilling the new editions and will be well ahead once I’m settled.

I appreciate everyone who follows and keeps up with the BVA guys and appreciate your patience during this move.

New color comic Wednesday

The next chapter of the Cablinasian Candidate is drawn.Â Really.Â And, it colored.Â No kidding.

There’s just the matter of the script.Â

I can’t find it.

So, I’m, err, looking for it.Â I had it recently and never got the words onto the panel.Â So, I’m scrubbing all points today.Â If I can’t find it, I’ll rewrite it.Â But the original IS funny.
